WHO WE ARE

The Economic Development Corporation of Sarasota County (EDC), established in 2004, is a 501(c)(6) public-private partnership comprised of dedicated business and government leaders working to grow a more diverse and resilient Sarasota County economy. We are the designated economic development agent for Sarasota County including the Cities of North Port, Sarasota, Venice and the Town of Longboat Key.

We support diverse business relocations and expansions that complement our community. Through a one-stop-shop, concierge services, the EDC helps companies establish, expand, and flourish. Our work facilitates new job creation, contributes to the economy and the tax base, and reduces vulnerability to external shocks that can undermine our community’s long-term health.
